Solve : Need driver for Astra 1220P scanner?

Answer»

It is a LPT scanner and was used with older OS, like Windows 98. It has a 25 pin connector and does not work with a USB  adapter. (As far as I know of.)

The UMAX site claims to have the driver, but they don't. What I have found, so far, is rather sketchy and does not help.

In SHORT, my regular scanner quit and this was in my junk room.

Whenever I do a SEARCH, all it get are those *censored* sites that promise but FIRST want MONEY

So, has anybody jeer ever used any of the Astra scanners?
Again, it is UMAX Astra 1220P scanner for a parallel printer port.
Thanks. 
https://www.hamrick.com/Thank you. This specific issue was not covered on the site.
 
It seems that the model I have is bad news. The protocol is very odd and hard to install in Windows XP. So I am going to go look in my junk room for something else.
